Junk Yard Circuit


"The Junk Yard"






This week I bring a outdoor circuit i did with my PE classes.

I call it the "Junk Yard Circuit"

This what I did

I had the kids bring out the kettlebells, large tires, med balls, jump ropes, 40ft rope, sit-up mats etc.

The students put all the object into a large pile outside the weight room.

I then told the students to partner up and to go get 1 object for the pair.

After the pair got their 1 object i told them to make a large circuit but a pair with the same object could not be next to each other. I.e. KB's could not be next to each other a jump rope or a med ball needed to be between them.

I then gave each object a exercise i.e. KB'goblet squats, med balls=Russian twist, jump ropes = rope skip, sit-up mats= sit=up's etc.

Next partner "A" would go first for 30 seconds, then partner "B" would go for 30 seconds. At the next whistle they would rotate to the next object and start immediately the clock would not stop.

We continued until the students went all the way around the circle which took about 20 minutes.

Give it a shot!
